For maximum absorption, vitamin B12 should be taken in spaced out doses during the day as the body can only absorb small amounts of B12 at a time. It’s also best to avoid taking it too close to a vitamin B12-rich meal: one, for example, containing offal or red meat in general, shellfish, oily fish (tuna, herring mackerel, trout) or eggs...

The body absorbs vitamin B12 via two mechanisms (1):
That’s why it’s advisable to take supplements in several doses, and to avoid taking them at the same time as a vitamin B12-rich meal.
A deficit in vitamin B12 can pose serious health risks (2), such as:
Certain individuals need to be particularly careful when it comes to vitamin B12 intake:

At this time I can not comment on any medical value of my purchase. I have no medical issues I'm treating so I will have to wait until my next blood test some months away to see just what benefit this product has given me.
